Even though the camera has a retro design and old world looks, it still is a small and comfortable piece to hold and work with. The total weight of the camera makes it quite easy to carry around though definitely not in your pocket!
Key Features
The Fujifilm Finepix S1000fd gets a definite edge over others due to a powerful zoom lens, good mega pixel count and a larger than average screen. The camera also has an optical viewfinder which is rare to be seen in most of the digital cameras today.
Other Features
The camera is also loaded with regular features expected of it like various shooting modes, image stabilizer, flash, red eye reduction etc that all aid in yielding great results. The camera also features required interfaces and has easy connectivity.
Verdict
The Finepix S1000FD is a neat looking camera with an improved zoom and a number of cool functions. Features like color filter further help in deriving amazingly clear and finest quality images. I am also totally sold on the looks which have a fine balance of an old style casing and compact, light weight design. You only wish for a few more interfaces and perhaps the absence of macro mode would pinch to some.
